The Democratic Alliance has requested the Public Protector to investigate the way the municipality of Madibeng is handling a report of a task team appointed by the previous Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Mr Richard Baloyi.

The team was appointed to investigate allegations of inter alia maladministration and corruption in Madibeng.

“The COGTA report was handed almost a year later to the municipality. A revised, tone-downed version of four pages was then tabled, but we are in possession of what we believe is the original version’ DA Chris Hattingh said.

DA said the version in their possession is in line with what the Minister told councillors during a meeting, but what he calls the “Troika” and senior municipal officials deny the existence of this report.
‘We have now asked the Public Protector to investigate the issue” he concludes.-TDN
